It can lead to depression, anxiety, and other mental health issues if left unaddressed.

80 | Wait on the Lord: Receive Strength, Courage and Faith in Difficult Times with Chris Cree

3/27/2023
Waiting is never easy, especially today in our instant gratification society. Whether it’s a relationship, financial or health issue, or just a transition. It can be difficult to wait on God, especially when we feel like we have no control over our circumstances. We often want our problem fixed right now, instead of going through the process of waiting. Typically, we often act in one of two ways while waiting on a promise from God. 1. We try to jump ahead of God and make things happen ourselves, not wanting to wait on His timing or plan. 2. Do nothing and wait passively for God to do something. I recently was a guest on Kingdom Mindset’s Two For Tuesday, which is a live teaching hosted by my friend, Chris Cree of New CREEations Ministries. We had great discussion on what does waiting on the Lord mean and why is it important we have a different attitude about waiting. I want to share that with you today. It’s a practical teaching on Psalm 27:13-14 with some other supporting scriptures, to help you get a better understanding of what waiting means and practically looks like in our own life. https://newcreeations.org loriksnyder.com Waiting upon and trusting God go hand-in-hand. God wants a heart connection with you, to fill you, not fix you Listen now as we teach how God will give us the strength and courage to face whatever comes our way while also providing peace during times of uncertainty. *Please share this with a friend who needs encouragement and be sure to follow this podcast and subscribe to Chris Cree's videos.
